Ariterm Vedo, Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual

Page: 3 / 28

GENERAL
Ariterm Vedo is an efficient, modern wood-fired boiler, which can also be equipped with a pellet
or oil burner. It complies with the newest pollution and efficiency requirements laid down in
D8. The boiler also meets the safety requirements laid down in EN 303-5.
Due to the boiler’s excellent burning properties and good insulation, it is highly efficient and has
low environmental emissions. Carefully designed convection channels store the heat efficiently.
Vedo should be connected to a warm water accumulator.
In proportion to its efficiency, Vedo is small and therefore easy to fit in available spaces. The boi-
ler room is not required to have the highest fire safety classification; EI 30 is sufficient. To make
optimal use of the boiler’s properties, it is important to follow the instructions provided in this
manual.
The firewood used in Vedo should be at most 0.5 m long. Vedo is a reverse combustion boiler
in which wood is combusted in a firebox lined inside a water jacket upon a ceramic grate. The
fuel gasifies on the ceramic grate. The gas compounds burn at a high temperature in the bottom
part of the boiler, in a ceramically-lined chamber. The boiler does not have its own water tank,
as it must be connected to a warm water accumulator to operate properly. Instead, the boiler
has a cooling spiral, on which a temperataure control valve is installed to prevent overheating. It
also has an exhaust fan that enables even combustion, and there is no height requirement for the
chimney.
TRANSPORTATION, STORAGE AND OPENING THE PACKAGE
Receiving the goods
The boiler is delivered in a wooden frame. On the bottom is a pallet, which can be used to lift
the boiler safely. It is advisable to open the package as close as possible to the installation locati-
on. The factory insures the boiler against transport damage, which includes transport from the
factory to the first intermediate storage point. It is important that whoever receives the boiler
should check its condition before accepting it. In cases of damage, the seller must be contacted
immediately.
Storage
The boiler can be stored in the open air if protected from rain, but storage indoors is recom-
mended.
Opening the package
After opening the package, open up all the hatches and check the equipment to see that all loo-
se equipment has been supplied. Disposal of packaging: plastic cover can be recycled, wooden
planks can be burned.
